Facebook launching personal fundraisers to help you raise money for a cause

Facebook personal fundraisers official

Days after announcing the launch of Stories in its main app, Facebook today revealed another new feature for its app.

Facebook is now rolling out personal fundraisers. This feature will let you raise money for yourself, a friend, or someone else. Personal fundraisers will be available first in the US for people 18 or older, and they’ll start rolling out in beta form in the coming weeks.

To start, Facebook will have a 24-hour fundraiser review process and will allow fundraisers to cover costs related to six specific categories:

  • Education: such as tuition, books or classroom supplies
  • Medical: such as medical procedures, treatments or injuries
  • Pet Medical: such as veterinary procedures, treatments or injuries
  • Crisis Relief: such as public crises or natural disasters
  • Personal Emergency: such as a house fire, theft or car accident
  • Funeral and Loss: such as burial expenses or living costs after losing a loved one

Facebook is also launching donate buttons for live broadcasts. This feature will be available to verified Pages and will give public figures, brands, and other organizations the ability to raise money during or after a live broadcast.
